Their semester ends on 12/21 so I am guessing around 12/21-22 because I am guessing that their staff gets that week off.

I’m guessing it may be 12/19 or around there. You can look back at previous years, and it looks like they’ve released the EA decisions in the past around 12/16-12/19 but I have no idea about this year.

Last year it was Friday, Dec 17. So possibly this year Friday, Dec 16? Seems like a lot of schools release the info on Friday evenings.

My daughter’s portal has changed over the last few days - or whenever she last logged in within a week - maybe they are starting soon?
